The presence of low adhesion at the wheel-rail contact point can result in skid of train wheels, and the skid, in turn, results in flats appearing on the wheels. Thus, anti-skid control has a crucial role for safe braking and prevention from flats that could cause a disastrous train accident. This paper presents dynamic modeling of a tilting train and the brake system of the tilting train, and analyzes the anti-skid logic used in the tilting train. The validity of the analysis is demonstrated via simulation study using Simulink for skid and re-adhesion circumstances of the tilting train.

Recently, Korea Highway Corporation has attemped to improve the highway safety in accordance with minimizing user's imconveniences. Currently, the Anti Skidding Pavement(ASP) has been introduced as a safety countermeasure on the safety frailty sections. In this study, a series of field evaluations on pavement skid resistance have been conducted on the skid frailty sections to analyze the effects and problems of the Anti Skidding Pavement (ASP), and to understand the behavior of pavement skid resistance due to pavement type, section characteristics, vehicles' speed and traffec volume. Test results show the Anti Skidding Pavement (ASP) has the effects to induce vehicles' speed reduction. However, there are no effects to increase skid resistance. According to these results, it is demanded to improve the applying method of current Anti Skidding Pavement (ASP) to devise an effective safety countermeasure for pavement skid, and to increase pavement skid resistance.

In general, the wheel-skid prevention of braking system is very important in modern railway applications. This is because wheel-skid can lead to an increase in noise and vibration from wheels with flat points, as well as an increased braking distance. However conventional anti-skid control has problems because wheel adhension and skid characteristics are very difficult nonlinear systems and time consuming to accurately model. In this paper, we design a fuzzy controller using a model of relation between ahdension and braking force, we show that anti-skid fuzzy controller has a very good performance, performing better than the previous conventional controller.

In this paper, it is to development of brake system with ABS function for aircraft. The test of brake system is required before applying on aircraft. The real-time dynamic simulator with 5-D.O.F. aircraft dynamic model is developed for braking performance test of ABS (Anti-skid Brake System) control h/w with anti-skid brake functions. The dynamic simulator is real-time interface system that is composed of dynamic simulation parts, master control parts, digital and analog in/out interface parts, and user interface parts. The 5-D.O.F. aircraft dynamic model is composed of a big contour and a little contour by simulation s/w. The big contour represents the interactions of forces in airframe, nose and main landing gear, and engines on the center of gravity. The little contour represents interactions of wheel, braking units, hydraulic units and a control unit. ABS control h/w unit with ABS control algorithm is also developed and is tested with simulator under the some conditions of gripping coefficient. We have known that ABS control h/w unit on wet or snowy runway as well as dry runway very well protects wheel skid.

To maintain the safety and efficiency of railroad vehicles, it is important to understand the working of the brake system with anti-skid control unit (ASCU) for rolling stocks. In this paper, a HILS (Hardware In-the Loop Simulations) system with ASCU hardware (for logic) and a DSP board (for dynamics) is developed to analyze skidding of the Hanvit-200 train during the process of braking. Experimental results are presented for the case that the skid on one of the four wheels is artificially generated using a Simulink model. A convenient GUI is prepared using ControlDesk of dSPACE.

As increasing social needs of pavement maintenance, pattern frame method has been constructed in Korea. The pattern frame not only increases the skid resistance of pavements but also improve the scenery. However, construction of the pattern frame currently relies on imported materials. In this paper, we localize the materials used in pattern frame and conduct performance verification on them. The important performance indicators are the adhesion strength of undercoating materials and the skid resistance of finished pattern frames. The adhesion strength was targeted at 1.4MPa, and the localization alternative material met the target performance with 2.35MPa, the skid resistance performance was targeted at 40BPN, and the localization alternative material met the target performance with 75BPN. In the case of localized materials, approximately 40% cost reduction (per 1m²)compared to imported materials was confirmed.

Being contacted directly with. ground, the tire tread part is in shape of complex patterns of variable ASDs(anti-skid depth) to satisfy various tire performances. However, owing to the painstaking mesh generation job and the extremely long CPU-time, conventional 3-D tire analyses have been performed by either neglecting tread pattern or modeling circumferential grooves only. As a result, such simplified analysis models lead to considerably poor numerical expectations. This paper addresses the development of a 3-D tire mesh generation considering the detailed tread pattern and shows that the contact pressure and frictional energy distribution of tires considering the detailed pattern become better than those by the simplified tire model.

The Korean tilting train called Hanvit 200 was launched recently in Korea to improve train speed up to 200 km/h at conventional lines. In this paper, we propose a HILS system for simulations of mechanical braking of the Hanvit 200 train using actual ASCU, actual dump valves, Simulink, dSPACE board, and ControlDesk software. In the proposed HILS system, dynamics of wheelsets, bogies and car body, brake force generation, creep force generations are realized via mathematical models, and anti-skid logic is realized using actual components. The validity of the proposed HILS system is demonstrated via comparing results of real-time and off-line simulations.

This paper presents a high performance sensor less control four motorized wheels for electric vehicle. Firstly, we applied a sensor less master-slave DTC based control to both the two in wheel motors by using sliding mode observer for its quick response and its high reliability in electric vehicle application. Secondly, to overcome the possible loss of adherence of one of the four wheels which is likely to destabilize the vehicle a solution is proposed in this paper. Thirdly, a Fuzzy logic anti-skid control structure well adapted to the non-linear system is used to overcome the main problem of power train system in the wheel road adhesion characteristic. Various Simulation results have been include in this paper to show that the proposed control strategy can prevent vehicle sliding and show good vehicle stability on a curved path.

Wheel skids may occur during train operations due to low adhesion at the wheel-rail contact point abnormally, and the skids, in turn, result in flats appearing on the wheels, which affect safety and ride comfort significantly. Thus, anti-skid control has a crucial role for safe braking and prevention from flats that could cause a disastrous train accident. This paper presents simulation studies on an anti-skid control unit (ASCU) with a brake system of a rolling stock including a pneumatic model for brake power supply and dump valve operation.
